We don’t see it, but it enters like an open door
You heard the stories, but jheez - it can do much more
It’s taking over quick.. It grips you like a claw
The way it traps us, it’s liked we’re pinned down to the floor
It can destroy.. It changes you an instant
When you realise, you feel like a sad infant
When you think about God, you think He’s distant
But pride continues to live.. Wow, it’s so ancient!
You think you’re great, but that just be plain ignorance
But when your heart is open, it’s such a distance
With your mother, your father, your brothers or your sisters
To get their love back – It’s hurting like blisters
You see the way that it works, but it’s never too late
It may have come to you once, but it just ain’t your fate
Our God is still looking out, He knows your true intention
If it’s to help or to break. He just wants your attention
So keep a look out for this. It just won’t ever stop
It’s working 24/7. Yep, it goes round the clock
Meditate on your thoughts. Don’t let your heart be rock
Make sure you’re praying to God, so that you won’t get blocked!
Pride is destruction, it comes to defeat
Pride works too sly now, it comes so discrete
It can be too powerful, bring you down to your knees
But by all the wrong reasons – Just stay strong please
It can come anytime, it can take anyone
It’ll do anything to upset our God’s Son
Let’s keep fighting for Jesus, the war has begun
Let’s keep fighting for Jesus, keep Him Number 1
I’m pleading out to my God! “I don’t know what to do!
I didn’t see this coming – Please my God, get me through!
It’s weird how it hurts who love, but also myself too...
My heart just feels so tight, don’t let it stick like glue
I need your help now my Father, please I’m begging You!”
I’m crying on my bed – Why did it choose me?
This ain’t what I wanted – I just want to be free
I just wanted to help, but I couldn’t explain
I see Mum sitting there.. Crying through all the pain
The pain that I caused her.. I just can’t stand that sight
When I saw that reaction, it gave me such a fright
And then I’m running around, I’m praying but there’s no sound
It felt like He weren’t around – I risked all to be “right”
I didn’t think to consider how they all would take it
But when heard it come out, there’s no way I could fake it
Fake myself being sad? All of this, I never wanted
I hate the way that pride works – I felt so haunted!
It took a while to recover, but now I’m back to praise
I won’t delay to keep away from all of pride’s displays
I’m not prepared to be going through that phase again
I ask You to protect us my God, may Your light descend
Pride is destruction, it comes to defeat
Pride works too sly now, it comes so discrete
It can be too powerful, bring you down to your knees
But by all the wrong reasons – Just stay strong please
It can come anytime, it can take anyone
It’ll do anything to upset our God’s Son
Let’s keep fighting for Jesus, the war has begun
Let’s keep fighting for Jesus, keep Him Number 1
I don't like the way we're going through this pain
I hate the way that I'm tired through all of this strain
I know we been through so much - Don't wanna lose You again
I'm done with this, can't let it win. I'm not gonna play this game!
I won't back down.. I can't give up within this war
I'm keeping up with God, He's gonna help me soar
And I look to the sky, I put my trust in Him
Proverbs 6: 17 - Please just remove this sin..
I wanna keep You happy.. I wanna keep You pleased
There's not a second I'll delay to get down to my knees
You're not just Lord & Saviour. You're definitely my King
You made my soul, You made my life. You are my everything
I'm not prepared to go back to the life that was such a mess
You got us all in Your arms.. I know that we are blessed
Pride is destruction, it comes to defeat
Pride works too sly now, it comes so discrete
It can be too powerful, bring you down to your knees
But by all the wrong reasons – Just stay strong please
